3167.0 Emerging Theories and Promising Practices in Health Promotion

Monday, October 31, 2011: 10:30 AM
Oral
Many models and theories developed in health education and health promotion have been based on research with selected white populations over the past 30 years. However, U.S. demographics are rapidly changing and such models may have limited utility today and into the future. This session will explore new, emerging paradigms at the individual, community and ecological levels that could potentially transform the basis for future health education planning, communications and interventions.
